what is a date tree? This: ,---- | * <2014-10-28 Di> `---- ? If the date-tree is the parent and has a timestamp, then the entries are part of the contents of parent, and you can use this function to map over the parents ,----[ C-h f org-element-map RET ] | org-element-map is a compiled Lisp function in `org-element.el'. | | (org-element-map DATA TYPES FUN &optional INFO FIRST-MATCH | NO-RECURSION WITH-AFFILIATED) | | Map a function on selected elements or objects. [...] `---- and this to get their contents ,----[ C-h f org-element-contents RET ] | org-element-contents is a compiled Lisp function in `org-element.el'. | | (org-element-contents ELEMENT) | | Extract contents from an ELEMENT. `---- and then 'org-element-property' and 'org-element-put-property' to get and set timestamp info from the parent and any other info from the child entries. -- cheers, Thorsten
